Default Cut and Run (Inferno in diretta, aka Live from Hell) (1985, Italy)

Cut and Run 1985 Inferno in diretta

Are you a fan of Cannibal Holocaust,but hated all the animal violence,then Inferno in diretta is definitely for you, i mean we hate cruelty to animals,but love a bare chested Michael Berryman hacking and a slashing his way through the green inferno. Lisa Blount as Fran Hudson a hard nosed TV journalist and her cameraman sidekick go on the trail of the drug cartels operating out of South America.On one side you have John Steiner as Vlado and on the other side is Richard Lynch as Colonel Brian Horne ex member of Jim Jones fan club and all round bad guy,and helped by hench man for hire Michael Berryman as Quecho,a sadistic machete wielding assassin.On top of this is Richard Bright as Bob Allo,the head of the TV studio,who has a son Willie Aames as Tommy Allo mixed up and caught in the middle of the drug wars. Mixing action and adventure with the violent and horrific horror we have all come to love with any Ruggero Deodato film,Inferno in diretta is pretty much a non stop action fest. Deodato does not let his audience down,Berryman hacks heads off ,and generally sticks his big chopper into anything that moves.John Steiner comes to a very sticky end ,in what must be one of the most groin aching effects ever ,as he is ripped in half by two trees,spilling his guts into the jungle.Of course it would not be a Deodato movie without a few south American tribesmen running around in loin cloths and screaming into the camera like they have just stepped onto a piece of lego in there bare feet.There's very little in the way of moralising,as Deodata is to busy showing us how much fun it is running drugs and slaughtering all and sundry. Even poor old Colonel Brian Horne gets his comeuppance in the end as he gives the TV viewers a live beheading .Eli Roth wishes he was this good.
